In the simultaneity inwhich Power is exercised (open - closed, inside - outside, public -private, whole - divided, allowed - forbidden), the individual is invadedby states that balance between submission and desire for liberty.Due to one's human condition, and because of one's need toacquire significant space and time for free movement, and with anactive critical attitude for confrontation of pre-concepts, customs,and habits imprinted early on, one challenges the unresponsiveand unpremeditated gentleness arising from those mechanismsof desubjectification.

Em concreto, usa-se a revisitacao etnografica para compreender processos de continuidade sociocultural e de mudanca no espaco residencial de uma freguesia rural do Alentejo, Flor da Rosa, que nas ultimas decadas tem vindo a ser apropriada pelo processo turistico. Partindo de etnografia realizada nesta localidade num intervalo temporal de duas decadas (1998-1999 e 2017-2018), demonstra-se como diferentes categorias de pessoas se apropriam processualmente dos espacos publicos da freguesia, assim como (re)desenham dimensoes alternativas de desafios do turistico nas suas subjetividades contemporâneas. Metodologicamente, a investigacao e ancorada em: (1) observacao participante, entrevistas exploratorias e pesquisa documental; (2) como ferramenta interpretativa adicional, salienta-se ainda o uso do desenho.
